On April 24, a federal judge blocked President Trump’s order requiring proof of U.S. citizenship for voter registration.
U.S. District Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly ruled that the Election Assistance Commission (EAC) must cease requiring documents like passports for this purpose.
- Trump’s directive aimed to amend the national mail voter registration form.
- Kollar-Kotelly stated Congress, not the President, has the authority to regulate federal elections.
- The plaintiffs challenging the order are “substantially likely to prevail.”
This decision underscores the constitutional roles of Congress and the President.
